My girls are about 3 yrs old now. They were tested and found positive for worms about 2 yrs ago. I have been using Wazine, every 6 months. But now I think one of my girls has 'Gape Worm', she appears fine in all aspects, just constantly gasping for breath. This has been going on for sometime now, over a yr, when it first started, she only 'gasped' when i would pick her up, so i didn't think much of it, and after awhile, i just tried not picking her up too often, anyhow, can she pass it on to the other chickens? how do i get rid of it in her? they are free range, only lock them in their coop at night, otherwise they have free run of about 2 acres. And no, they don't much care for thier chicken feed, when they have a buffet of grass, bugs and leftovers to choose from. Thanks for any help
